Registered Dental Assistant

Dental Assistant / Expanded Functions Dental AssistantBuild Your Skills. Bring Your Ideas. Make a Difference.

Lawson Dentistry in Urbandale is looking for a Dental Assistant or Expanded Functions Dental Assistant who wants more than a job that feels the same every day.

We are looking for a self-starter, forward thinker, and problem solver who enjoys a challenge, connects with patients, and wants to play an active role in helping people improve their health.

At Lawson Dentistry, we practice proactive, not reactive, dentistry. That means we look beyond fixing problems after they happen. We focus on understanding what contributes to a patient’s oral health concerns and helping them build healthier habits and better function in the long term.

A Team That Invests in Your Growth

We take continuing education seriously, and we believe the whole team should have opportunities to grow.

Our team travels throughout the year for advanced continuing education courses. We encourage team members to expand their skills, ask questions, contribute ideas, and use their training and permitted functions to the fullest.

You will not be expected to simply follow instructions and stay in your lane. We want someone who notices opportunities, thinks ahead, helps solve problems, and wants to grow alongside the practice.

Dr. Jessica Lawson believes strongly in treating team members like family and creating a culture where everyone has a voice. We encourage an ownership mindset in which each team member takes pride in the practice, the patient experience, and the team's success.

Dentistry With a Broader View of Health

Our approach is wholistic and evidence-based. Our preventive and hygiene programs incorporate tools and resources such as microscopy, water flossers, probiotic products, and nutritional supplements as part of a broader focus on oral and overall wellness.
